Second attempt.
Longish - sorry.
I wish I knew if it was my "Disputer" or Blip software playing sillibeggars.
I was about to say - Jerra came through yesterday , in lieu of Thur to help cut the Box - BUT - in truth, he did 90+% of it.
How things change? When we moved in the front "Garden" was wall to wall Grass with no Hedge/Wall - AND - if you look closely, you'll see two vertical "Cracks" near the screen centre. That was the entrance to the "funnel" leading to steps up and a B. R. O. A. D. path to the Door.
Mate Bill kindly widened the Drive and used leftovers to close the steps access - SO - all the visible vegetation plus at least two small trees all came in the back of the Volvo.
However - to the Boxes. I've cut them, for decades, by Eye. Considering the road slopes slightly up and the "Bricky" laid the Wall with a Spirit-level. Not TOO bad, by Eye.
Enter "The Hack" (WHY, with 6-7 different ways of using "Hack" - However there's another be en introduced)
This one was to lay a Ladder along the Wall top as a guide. This was done, checked by Spirit-level, and found to be "true" despite appearances.
The low Box is one of two I replanted in new position after closing Steps access (One died, one didn't)
I/we also decided a year or some ago that converting the Buxus Cubes into a Box Hedge would vastly reduce work - THUS:-
Instead of cutting
Back - Front - Left - Right - Top
we only cut
Back - Front - Top - One end. The other end is against Al & Mary's wall.
